My favorite part about being an internal medicine doctor is forming long-term relationships with patients. I love the moment when a person finally reached their goal weight, has their diabetes or blood pressure under perfect control or gets their depression into remission. Until that point, I enjoy working with people on small inventions that add up to big health improvements over time. In my free time, I jog and watch movies. I was a physician for USA Boxing for many years. My husband and I hope to visit all seven continents.
